Klangfarbenmelodie

Klangfarbenmelodie is a term coined by composer Arnold Schoenberg to describe a style of composition that employs several different kinds of tone colors to a single pitch or to multiple pitches. This is achieved by distributing the pitch or melody among several different instruments.

You should all look up a word today. Look up fenestration, prurient, ineffable, solipsistic, soporific, spiv, or ralliform.
